Realizations

Ever have one of those moments where you look at whatever it is that you're knitting and you go, hmm...could that be big enough? That's what I did with the sock I've been working on for DBF. I looked at it, then decided to try it on since we have almost the same sized foot. Yep, KnitPicks simple stripes has no stretch to it. It's tighter than hell. If it's tight on me, then it's definitely going to be too tight on him since his legs have more muscle in them than mine. Time to go frogging...

Today is normally my stitch n' bitch day at work, but I have to work on a lab assignment instead. Gotta catalogue some macerals for class. It's interesting at least. I have to go make a rank suite for a project and show the different ranks of coals and the macerals that make up the coal.

OK, I probably just lost some of you. That was the science dork in me coming out again. I'll suppress her for a little while now. On a good note, I went to Curves yesterday to work out and weigh in since I'm doing that 6-week solution. I lost 4 pounds this week, so I was quite happy about that. I better have lost some weight with as strict as I have been eating. Aside from blowing it on Saturday (Magic events just have to be accompanied by breakfast at McDonald's, papa john's pizza, and ice cream), I did pretty well on the program. Woot!
